OpenTUI is a native terminal user interface library written in Zig with TypeScript bindings, usable directly or via React and Solid renderers. It provides flexbox layout, keyboard/mouse input, and supports images, sounds, and 3D graphics in the terminal.

Use cases

• build a terminal UI app in TypeScript
• render React components in the terminal
• build a TUI with flexbox layout
• create interactive terminal dashboards with keyboard and mouse input
• serve a terminal UI over SSH
• render 3D graphics in the terminal

When to choose

• you want to build rich, interactive terminal interfaces in TypeScript
• you prefer React or Solid component models for TUIs
• you need high-performance native rendering (Zig core) for terminal apps
• you want to ship a TUI over SSH or across macOS, Linux, and Windows

When to avoid

• you need a GUI or web frontend rather than a terminal interface
• your stack is Python, Go, or Rust rather than TypeScript/Bun
• you need a mature, long-established TUI framework with a large ecosystem
• you cannot use Bun/Zig tooling for builds
